well i just checked out the weather for the week and it's only gonna be 22 on wednesday and 27 on thursday, so i doubt there will be a fire ban. unless.... i wasn't listening and missed it , anyway, there's always electroglos and all the other non fire things.

The weekend has landed, all that exists now is clubs, drugs, pubs and parties, I got 48 hours off from the world. This could be the best night of my life, I've got 73 quid in my backburner and I'm gonna wax the lot, man.THE MILKY BARS ARE ON ME!!

nah it's kool, i didn't even go to the sunday thingo...can't remember what was going on, i think i was sitting at home playing PS2, so don't be pissed off cause i sure ain't, i am more pissed off that the capoeira place was closed for the aussie day public holiday...BILL!!!! jk
i think it is going to be rather hot tomorrow, 41 sounds about right, so non-firey stuff it is, asuming my mum doesn't get irate and say i can't go out the night before the first day of year 12, we'll (me n jespa) seeya there..assuming it all goes to plan and we don't die of heat stroke during the day or be too drunk while we can

Flick and kick for being so quick.
yay, go flynt, lol, i kan tipe two, butt mi spaling isned tha gratest lets see if i can get the time AND place right this week unlike my other unsuccessful outing a few weeks ago.
i've had a hankering for some firing this weekend, hope to see you all there, jesper will probably be taking photos again, still hasn't got them back from wednesday night though, i'll try and harass him into picking them up.
Nice to hear about yet ANOTHER gathering for the fire community of melbourne, tjoni, although being in year 12 this year makes it a bit hard on weeknights, so i'll probably only be able to make it the sunday and friday sessions, and the odd wednesday one and the gardens when i get my car (TWO MONTHS!!!) must check up on this dights falls though.

Hey beautiful people

will be arriving from NZ to Melbourne on the 11th of March probably only for two days and then onwards to sydney. HOWEVER, I would love to meet up with you, hug my Bender, kiss my Flynt on the forehead and all that stuff and meet all of the otehr beautiful Melbourne crowd...

anything planned on the 11th or 12th or possibly 13th ?

Also just a question : does anyone know of a cheap place to stay in Melbourne or of someone willing to rent a couch or a floor either for money or for yummy French homemade food ? :0

thanks in advance

Shine on beautiful people

Hija lurvlies!
St Kilda Festival is on Sunday, not Saturday!! Hope everyone gets this in time!

Oh and shall we meet at the usual place on Sunday arvo? Might be a bit crowded though as the main stage will be there...anyone have any suggestions?
XXOO

Casandra, if I have a house by the time you get here, your welcome to stay with me. I'm in a factory at the moment which you can use as a last resort but it's a bit noisy!

I shall be in Melbourne soon! Well, in a month, but that's soon enough! I shall be at fire meetings for a whole week, but only if I find out what an "arvo" is and if every day of the week has one or if Sunday has a monopoly on them
